< Deuteronomy 10 >
1 At that time the LORD said unto me, Hew you two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make you an ark of wood.
Apre sa, Seyè a te di m': Taye de wòch plat tankou de premye yo. Fè yon bwat an bwa, mete yo ladan l'. Moute vin jwenn mwen sou mòn lan.
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which you brake, and you shall put them in the ark.
Mwen pral ekri sou wòch yo tou sa mwen te ekri sou wòch plat ou te kraze yo. Lèfini, w'a mete yo nan bwat la.
3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
Se konsa, mwen fè yon bwat an bwa zakasya, mwen taye de wòch plat tankou de premye yo, epi mwen moute sou mòn lan ak wòch yo nan men m'.
4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them unto me.
Seyè a make sou wòch yo dis pawòl li te ekri premye fwa a, dis kòmandman Seyè a te ban nou antan li te nan mitan dife a, jou nou tout nou te reyini nan pye mòn lan. Apre sa li ban mwen yo.
5 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the LORD commanded me.
Mwen desann soti nan mòn lan. Mwen mete wòch plat yo nan bwat mwen te fè a, jan Seyè a te ban mwen lòd la, epi se la yo rete depi lè sa a.
6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his position.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo kite pi Benèy-Jakan yo, yo pati pou Mosera. Se la Arawon te mouri. Se la tou yo antere l'. Se Eleaza, pitit li a, yo te mete prèt nan plas li.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
Yo kite kote yo te ye a, yo pati pou Goud Goda, epi yo rive Jobata, yon kote ki te gen anpil dlo.
8 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
Se lè sa a Seyè a te mete moun branch fanmi Levi yo apa pou yo reskonsab pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, pou yo ka kanpe devan l' fè sèvis pou li, pou yo ka beni pèp la nan non l', jan y'ap fè l' jouk koulye a.
9 Wherefore Levi has no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God promised him.
Se poutèt sa, moun branch fanmi Levi yo pa t' resevwa ankenn pòsyon tè pou rele yo pa yo menm jan ak moun lòt branch fanmi yo paske se Seyè a ki tout byen yo, jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te di l' la.
10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also, and the LORD would not destroy you.
Mwen menm, mwen rete karant jou, karant nwit sou mòn lan, jan mwen te fè l' premye fwa a. Fwa sa a ankò, Seyè a koute m', li te dakò pou l' pa detwi nou.
11 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take your journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.
Lè sa a, li di m' konsa: Leve non. Pati, pran devan pèp la. Mennen yo al pran pou yo peyi mwen te sèmante m'ap bay zansèt yo a.
12 And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
Koulye a, nou menm pèp Izrayèl, men sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mande nou: Se pou nou gen krentif pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se pou nou swiv chemen li mete devan nou an. Se pou nou renmen l'. Se pou nou sèvi l' ak tout kè nou ak tout nanm nou.
13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?
Se pou nou mache dapre tout kòmandman ak tout lòd li yo. Se pou byen nou mwen ban nou yo jòdi a.
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's your God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
Gade non! Se pou Seyè a syèl la ak tou sa ki anwo nèt nan syèl la ye. Se pou li latè ak tou sa ki ladan l' lan ye.
15 Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
Men, pami tout ras moun ki sou latè yo, se zansèt nou yo li te pi pito, paske li te renmen yo. Apre yo, se nou menm, pitit yo, li pi pito nan mitan tout lòt ras moun, jan sa ye jouk koulye a.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stubborn.
Se poutèt sa, louvri kè nou nèt bay Seyè a. Sispann fè wòklò ak li,
17 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regards not persons, nor takes reward:
paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se li menm ki Bondye anwo tout bondye, se li menm ki chèf sou tout chèf. Li gen pouvwa, li gen fòs, li fè moun respekte l'. Li pa nan paspouki, li pa kite yo achte figi l' avèk kado y'ap ofri ba li.
18 He does execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loves the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
L'ap defann kòz timoun ki san papa yo ak kòz fanm ki pèdi mari yo. Li renmen moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan pèp li a, li ba yo manje pou yo manje ak rad pou yo mete sou yo.
19 Love all of you therefore the stranger: for all of you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Se pou nou renmen moun lòt nasyon sa yo tou paske yon lè se sa nou te ye nan peyi Lejip la.
20 You shall fear the LORD your God; him shall you serve, and to him shall you cleave, and swear by his name.
Se pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ase pou nou gen krentif. Se li menm sèlman pou nou sèvi. Pa janm lage l'. Se nan non l' ase pou nou fè sèman.
21 He is your praise, and he is your God, that has done for you these great and terrible things, which your eyes have seen.
N'a fè lwanj li, se li menm ki Bondye nou. Nou te wè ak je nou tout gwo bagay ak bèl mèvèy li te fè pou nou.
22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Lè zansèt nou yo te desann nan peyi Lejip, yo te swasanndis moun sèlman. Koulye a, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, fè nou vin anpil tankou zetwal nan syèl la.
